Monthly "me" Monday

We do a lot of cool things. I realized, though, that someday Grace might look back at this blog or at the books I have made for each year (3 so far!) and wonder where I was. Of course, I have been there. Who else is taking the photos and narrating each entry? But, whenever that day comes, I also want her to have pictures of the two of us together. So, my plan (I won't call it a "resolution" but I guess it is) for this year is to try to be in at least one photo each month. This is hard for me. I hate giving up the control of the photography. I like doing it, I am selective about the photos I call "blog-worthy", and I really hate looking at myself in pictures. As a result, I'd much prefer to be behind the camera than in front of it. But, for those same reasons, this is a good exercise to challenge me to hand the camera to someone else for a change (in this case, Kyle)
So, here we are on Saturday at Severence Hall. We were there for the "Musical Rainbow" series where we learned about and listened to keyboard instruments like the accordion, harpsichord, piano, and organ. The concert was in the main hall this time and were were astounded at how beautiful it was. The kind of place that makes you say, "Wow" as you enter.

Looking good Mommie! But more than once a month is better than the best resolution (committment) Love the scarf.
